Lateral Hires

QC Legal has established itself as the agency of choice when it comes to partner moves, with headhunt instructions comprising a significant proportion of our business. There have been a spate of high level moves across the north in recent years and QC Legal has been behind many of these.

There are myriad factors to consider when acquiring a new partner. It is important that the move is designed to add value and maintain internal equilibrium – there is little sense in proceeding with a lateral hire if it results in disharmony, and your firm, unintentionally, falling behind the pack.

We are experts in responding to your precise needs. Lateral hires need careful consideration – they should not be viewed as a quick fix or a stopgap.

We can walk you through how any hire will impact your business and affect your business model, and how to ensure it will be beneficial in the long run.
